zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Spend your money on a GOOD guitar like this and not one of the cheaper models."

Sound: This one sounds pretty good for the money. I don't have a lot to compare it to, but I've played a few higher dollar fenders and low dollar martins and this guitar sounds just as good as those. Ibanez was my other choice, but this one just sounded better. Feature: Not many features. Just an acoustic. Quality: I have a friend who has an older model Yamaha that is almost exactly like the one I have. and it is about 30 years old. It sounds just as good as mine which is only a year or two old. The bridge is still good and the frets have held up over the years. Value: This is a great guitar for the money. I think it is about the lowest dollar solid spruce top you can get and the solid tops sound much better than laminate ones. I wouldn't say it is worth more than $200 just because I think you can get an acoustic/electric from Yamaha for $250. But if it was a Fender, it would probably be a $300 guitar. Manufacturer Support: No problems. The Wow Factor: It looks good, it would be cool if they made a mahogany color or some sort of darker brown. Overall: This thing should last awhile. The next guitar I buy will probably be in the $700-$900 range, but for the beginner/casual player, this is a nice guitar. So much better than the $99 specials that everyone seems to waste their money on.
